aww so sad to hear, I had the same issue with a couple of my buns but we just keep them separate, I didn't the heart to let them go. We have a complex home with each having free time. it works for us, but not for everyone.

Lola is beautiful ...... So sad that they could not get along, Dexter looks like such a sweet bun. When I got Nermal back from the people who adopted her it was immediately obvious the bond between her and Pipi was gone, if not with the rest of the warren, they would happily kill each other if given the opportunity, but there was no way I could part with her again. I just get better at building barriers and scheduling playtimes. I am just hoping the spays will sort everything out.

Awh I'm so sorry to hear it didn't work out bmt. I remember you asking questions about getting a second bun but never heard you actually got one (well a foster that is). Looks like Lola wants to be the only diva in the house. He is a gorgeous sweet looking bun though. He'll probably get a new home real fast

You still haven't told us how old Molly is or how long you have had her... The others will be slowly surfacing over the next few hours and enquiring minds will want to know!

Awww. She looks so snuggly in her blankey. May I offer a piece of advice? Those "treats" you are giving her: seeds aren't the best things for buns. I can't tell what else is in there but it looks like a mix of things that generally aren't very good for bunny. These things, while sold as healthy bunny treats, is the equivalent of chocolate junk food for humans. There are far better things out there for bunnies. Try dried fruit: cranberries, raisins, and crasins, go over REALLY well with bunnies and they are a healthier for bunnies (seeds and things like corn can do damage to the digestive tract). Just some food (no pun intended) for thought She is extra pretty! Very interesting coloring.

Hi Molly's Mum... Just saw you are in my territory.... PM me your suburb and I will give you a list of safe bunny vets and good suppliers. The ones currently listed on some websites have lost some of their reputation and their are new ones that aren't listed. I try to devote my time to the local Rabbit Rescue when I can and can let you know about pending events and handy tips for the area. *PM Click on my tag to the left and it will give you the message option.

Molly is gorgeous. I thought I saw some harlequin in her. I love harlequin

As for the treats, I did the same too when I first got Bunjamin so don't feel bad. Most important thing now is that you switch them BEFORE they become a stomach problem. My bunjamin boy also likes dehydrated greens like willow, cilantro, lettuce. And it stays good longer than most other treats. Put it in a bag that crinkles and you got great treats!

Okay, less talk more pix!

Roberta -- LMAO!!!!!!! My 3 terrors will eat your cat for dinner. All my boyfriends friends make jokes about how they're going to eat the bunnies every time they come over (they all LOVE trying eccentric food and love rabbit ) But anyways... I always tell them that my bunnies are evil (which I'm convinced they are)... and they will eat them before they even have a chance to open the cage. Which I'm convinced they would. I'm totally convinced my boy buns are demons disguised in bunny fur.

BullRider -- I'm a Republican and have my choice already picked BUT I thInk..... if Mr. Hopper got on the ballot I would have no choice but to support him.. Look at that hat, no one else would stand a chance! The whole US would become bunny slaves and bunnies would rule the roost! Carpet and craisins for everyone! And hoomins will go in cages and come out when the bunnies allow. *how it should be*

BMT -- OMG. He is GORGEOUS. And I love his name, Dexter! Hahaha. I feel your pain though. My boyfriend and I got a Lionhead before we got our 2nd two Tans to go along with our first boy Tan and my little Tan was in LOVEEEE with the new bunny (I think he's in love with every bunny he meets though) but the Lionhead (Mario) thumped at him 800 times! My boyfriend turned out to be allergic to the Lionhead -- which we found out may have just been the timothy at the time because my baby boy Tan was on alfalfa -- but all the same we had to give him up and it was absolutely heart breaking. But we had told ourselves before hand that our first baby boy came first also and if they didn't get along the other would have to go... But it was still heart breaking all the same. Lola is SUCH a Diva!

Sam and Lady's Human -- THAT IS TOTALLY WHAT DEXTER IS SAYING!! ahahahahahhahaha. I couldn't stop laughing at that comment -- it's just SOOOO perfect with the picture!!!!!

FF -- every time you post pics of Bunjamin I just wanna snuggle him! His fur is soooooo beautiful. I'm soo jealous!

Molly -- OMGosh... she is GORGEOUS!!! And that little face. Sooooooooo beautiful!! I would try dried cranberries - my buns go NUTS over them. They'll literally trample me over and jump all over me for them!

Roberta -- I just read your post in Septembers Picture Thread and omg. They were TINY. That is so sad that the neighbor is so inhumane. That's just disgusting and revolting and every other word I can think of... UGH. Makes me sick really. I'm glad they are with a good home now though! And I hope all the other little guys found good homes also!
